Some of you may remember that Bryan Dewberry (Tin_Can) was the first recipient of the Outstanding Contribution Award (OCA). I have decided to bestow a few additional awards to recognize several founding members some of whom have already been awarded the UOM award, but one not. I would like to especially thank these fine members for their contributions to the site and it's members over the past year and a half. In that time we have grown immensly, and these 3 members were instrumental in that growth.

The award recipients are:

Rob Gronovius (Sabot)
Ken Fortier (Kencelot)
and Werner Kampfhofer (tankbuster)

My thanks to them and everyone who has help nurture and build our fine community of modelers.

Cheers,
Jim

Well done and congratulations to everyone!! :-)

Maybe here's the place to say a BIG thankyou to Kencelot for taking so much time talking me through how to post URLs... it's that kind of help that makes Armorama outstanding!

May I nominate Holdfast for the next round of recipients...

All the best

Congratulations and well done to all. Not to overstate the obvious, but this site's success is dependent on the contributions of the membership. These folks are the examples we should all strive to be.

Thanks Rowan, but I have a long way to go before I even come close to the contribution that these guys make and have made. Maybe if I give up work :-)
